Cryptic female choice: frogs reduce clutch size when amplexed by undesired males.
In species with internal fertilization, females can 'cryptically' choose (e.g. through sperm selection) which individuals sire their offspring, even when their overt preferences for copulatory partners are overrun by male-male competition and sexual coercion. The experiment presented here reveals that control of paternity after copulation has begun is also possible in species with external fert...
متن کاملStaff’s normative attitudes towards coercion: the role of moral doubt and professional context—a cross-sectional survey study
BACKGROUND The use of coercion is morally problematic and requires an ongoing critical reflection. We wondered if not knowing or being uncertain whether coercion is morally right or justified (i.e. experiencing moral doubt) is related to professionals' normative attitudes regarding the use of coercion. METHODS This paper describes an explorative statistical analysis based on a cross-sectional...
متن کاملMating Behavior and Dual-Purpose Armaments in a Camel Cricket

Male–male competition favors not only traits such as overt weapons used to fight other males (Darwin 1871; Andersson 1994) but also less overt traits such as enhanced locomotor or sensory capability favored in scramble competitions (Able 1999; Bertin & Cézilly 200...
متن کاملCryptic forcible insemination: male snakes exploit female physiology, anatomy, and behavior to obtain coercive matings.
Whether males can inseminate uncooperative females is a central determinant of mating system evolution that profoundly affects the interpretation of phenomena such as multiple mating by females, mate choice, reproductive seasonality, and courtship tactics. Forcible insemination is usually inferred from direct physical battles between the sexes and has been dismissed on intuitive grounds for man...
متن کاملTeasing apart coercion and surprisal: Evidence from eye-movements and ERPs
Previous behavioral and electrophysiological studies have presented evidence suggesting that coercion expressions (e.g., began the book) are more difficult to process than control expressions like read the book. While this processing cost has been attributed to a specific coercion operation for recovering an event-sense of the complement (e.g., began reading the book), an alternative view based...
